Schaub hardly the lone ranger in Texans’ pursuit of Super Bowl title

As the Texans prepare for their eighth training camp under coach Gary Kubiak, it’ll take so much more than quarterback Matt Schaub to make sure the Texans reach their goal of winning a Super Bowl.

If we’re going to blame Schaub for the collapse over the last four games of the regular season as well as the embarrassing playoff loss at New England, shouldn’t we give him credit for the 11-1 start and postseason victory over Cincinnati?

It’s amazing how much Schaub is being ridiculed for the Texans’ cratering in December. Most of the criticism is aimed at the lopsided losses at New England that were 33 days apart.

Granted, Schaub deserved criticism because he didn’t play well, but let’s be fair. A lot of players and coaches deserved to be criticized.

The defense was horrible in both losses to the Patriots. Still, you don’t hear anyone pointing out that the defense allowed 83 points in the routs at Gillette Stadium. It’s all about Schaub.
The truth is a lot of players and coaches failed to produce when the Texans needed them the most.
